Later on, it became clear that we might even see it as soon as this summer, probably along with the next Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Galaxy Z Flip 7. Now, it looks like Samsung's plans for foldable tech are getting even bolder.
These images from Samsung's patent show the company is exploring the idea of a quad-foldable display.
Huawei's Mate XT Ultimate already pushes boundaries by transforming from a chunky phone into an ultra-light 10.2-inch tablet. Now, imagine Samsung's quad-foldable design – potentially even larger when fully opened. The possibilities for productivity and entertainment are huge.
Samsung has already proven its dominance in the foldable market with its Galaxy Z Fold and Z Flip series and this new patent suggests that the tech giant is looking to push the envelope even further.
Now, of course, patents don't always guarantee a finished product. We have already seen plenty of concepts that never made it past the drawing board. However, the fact that Samsung is exploring this idea suggests it is serious about pushing the future of mobile technology in bold new directions.
